G.. A. r. ENCAMPMENT.
A Plan 90 Raise Funds For Rep
reSenfatfOn,

II
resentation.
A meeting Of the committee of the G.
A. r., to make arrangements for the
proper representation of ;Southern Cali
fornia at the next National Encampment
at st. Louis. was held yesterday after.
noon in the Schumacher block. Vari-
GUS methods of raising funds to meet the
expenses arising from such movement
were discussed, and subcommittee
were appointed to push matters forward.
1t was proposed that each of the new
towns now in process of formation do.
nate lot to the cause, the lots to be
sold at auction and the proceeds to be
applied to paying the expenses. In
order to cut off any commission which
might occur in effecting the sale, Captain
Tyler offered to sell the lots free of
charge, provided no real estate dealer
offered to do the same. 1t was con-
cluded, from assurances given by some
of the representatives OF the new towns,
that there was every probability of
eclipsing every other representation at
the Encampment. The Gladstone I'm
provement Company, with its usual lib
erality and enterprise, set an example,
as the following letter will show:
OFFICE GLADSTONE IMPROVEMENT Co.,
June Is, 1887.
Mcj. George Il. Gard, Chairman Com
mittee.
DEAR SIR:-The Gladstone Improve
ment Company being in entire sympa-
thy with the wish of the members of
the Grand Army of the Republic here to
have full representation at the Nation
al Encampment at st. Leuis this year,
and being desirous of having a credita-
BILE exhibit of the products of Southern
California made, so that the veterans of
the nation may be invited to come and
make their homes with us, we tender to
your committee the title deeds of lot %,
block 6S, in the town of Gladstone, free,
the lot to be sold at auction on some day
fixed by yourselves, and the proceeds
to go into the fund set apart for the ex-
hibit. The schedule price of the lot is
5000.
May success attend the Grand Army
boys and may they be able to keep what
they have won. Very truly yours,

SneciaI Announcement.

The first advance in the price of Ivanhoe
lots was made June LIST as per advertise
ment for several months. For various good
reasons, some of the lots are left at the
original prices for another month. But
most of them have been advanced 20 to so
per cent. Even at advanced prices it is the
best property offered for the money any
where around Los Angeles; and buyers
should choose their lots before the next ad-
vance, which will be made in July. The
sale OF lots in May was larger than in any
previous month, and the end of June viii
find most of the lots sold. All who see Ivan
hoe agree that 1t is the best property for the
least money that can be found. The water
system and the dummy road will both be
ready by July, and many houses will be
built in the next two months. II you want a
frst-class large let for small m of money,
come at once. Byram < indexter, q

A meeting of the property owners
along Los Angeles street was held at
the rooms of the City Council yesterday
afternoon, at which was discussed, in an
informal manner, the opening of the
street and the Strengthening of its lines.
Those who were present did not object
to the assessments or the awards, and it
was evident that the intention was to
hurry matters forward as much as pos
sible. The street will be cut through
the property of the Los Angeles Water
Company, of Arcadia de Baker, John L.
Noriega, Theo. Rimpau and L. Fonout.

RAILROAD IMPROVEMENTS.

The s. P. r. Company, near where
the road turns off to the site OF the new
observatory that is to be, is doing an
immense and imperishable work in de-
tending the track of the company from
the wild stream that comes down from
the Soledad canon. This mountain
stream, the headwater OF the Santa
Clara, has a descent from Alpine to
Kent station of 1900 feet in thirty.three
miles. All who know anything about
the force of water in motion can realize
how wild and upgovernable large
stream will become in making such a
great descent. The ordinary soft sand
rock of the cafion gives way before its
power and the track has been
carried away by the furious
onslaught of this fearful stream.
The track has now been
relaid at higher elevation, and where
practicable. cut deep into the sides OF
the mountains; but where the latter
course could not be adopted plan has
been chosen and is being carried out OF
building a granite wall of vast strength,
a real translation of q portion of the
Tehachepi mountains, eighty.five miles
distant, to the lower end of the Soledad
canon, where the stream becomes rag
ing river, near Kent's station, and in its
mad whirl dashes against the track OF
the Southern Pacific Company.
To give ''thus far" to this roaring
flood, the company has commenced an
immense work in making a breastwork
against the stream alongside the railway
track. For this purpose trench has been
dug four feet deep and four feet wide
along the foot of the railway embank.
ment. Into this trench great blocks OF
granite and granite boulders are placed
and upon these a sloping wall of the
same material is laid up above the reach
of a freshet. The work is slow and
expensive. The rocks weighing from
1000 to 5000 lbs have to be lifted by
a steam engine and swung into position
by crane and chain. A carload of
1000 lbs when placed in this vast wall
is hardly noticeable. Forty.six carloads
have been placed already and only look
like beginning. From present appear.
ances from 300 to 500 carloads will be
absorbed in this work when the embank-
ment will be indestruetible by any
thing except the rending of the earth
by an earthquake. Messrs. Cas-
son and Amber who are supervising the
work feel that it will stand till
Rocks and hills their lasting silence break.
The evidences are strongly in their
favor. 1t is quite likely that the job
will last all summer, but when done
will never need to be done again. 1t is
pleasant to see this great corporation
setting an example Of noble improve.

When the wheel was given turn by

Border Bandits Taken By Surpriss-NOted Dsspsr-
ADDE'S Captured After a Sharp and Fatal
Fight, and Several Notorious Murder
ers Executed on the Spot

BROWNSVILLE, TEXAs, May 3l.-At
dawn Yesterday morning, in the midst OF
a driving rain, the Balsa cutoff, above
Santa Maria, Mexican territory, on this
side of the river, and the refuge OF about
thirty desperate bandits, thieves and
smugglers, was raided by forces from both
sides Ofthe river.
Sheriff Breto, of this county, and Dep
uty Clanser, of Hidalgo, with about fifty
rancheros aud deputies, entered and drove
ont the bandits, who met with warm re-
ception Oh the other side from a detach-
ment OF the Third Cavalry under Colonel
Nieves Hernandez.
A sharp fight ensued, in which Colonel
Hernandez was wounded in the hand, one
Of his men killed and another wounded.
One bandit was killed, several wounded
and number captured, several of whom,
well known murdercrs, were executed on
the spot.
A large amount of stolen stock was
found, most Of which was returned to the
owners.
Sheriff Breto brought in and jailed two
men, Florencia Almanzar and Dolores
Cantu. On account OF the dense brush n
number OF noted criminals made good
their escape. The blow. however is Sc
we're one to the disOrderly and criminal
element which had gathered in these cut
offs, rs they believed safe from pursuit,
rife from any revolutionary plot, and
maintaining themselves by robbery and
plunder.

1t Has Caught the Beechcr Crowd, and
Has Not Seating Room For His Audi
cnCOs.
NEW YORK, May 3l.-Talmage has come
vigorously to the front with plan to gather
in the people whom the death of Beecher
has diverted from Plymouth church. Even
before that blow to Plymouth, Talmagc's
Tabernacle could and did hold rs many
persons, and the regular membership had
passed that of the other organization. On
SUNDAY mornings, q stream Of strange ~
used to pour across the great bridge, but at
theBrOOklyn end it divided into two not very
unequal parts, one of which went atoOt 10
Beecher's church, near by, while the other
took strCet-cars for Talmage's. The stream
still runs in undiminished quantity, but
none of it reaches Plymouth, and the Tab
ernacle is not big enough, even with its
seats for 3, OOO, to absorb it. The energetic
Talmage has been worried by this excess OF
fame, and has labOrcd hard to stop the loss
OF it. Now he has secured contributions
aud loans sufficient to build wing to the
already enormous church. This annex
will have pews for thousand, and it will
he erected this summer. Talmage is now
the only preacher in New York or brooklyn
with national popularity sufficient TO
constitute him an exhibit which travellers
care 80 see, and he says: I'VE shall add
wings To our house just so long as the peO-
pie and my voice will fill them"

Happy Homes.

Much has been written and said about
how to make home happy. The mOralist
and the preacher have hackneyed this
theme until it would seem nothing more
remained to be said. But the philosophers
have gone far out of their way to account
for the prevalence of ill-assOrted couples
and unhappy homes, and have overlooked
the chief cause. Most OF the unhappineSs
of married life can be traced directly to
those functional arrangements to which
women are subject. In nine cases out OF
ten the irritable, dissatisfied and unhappy
wife is a sufferer from some female COM
nlaiut." A trial of DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription will produce more domestic
happiness than million sermons or philo-
sophical treatises. 1t cures all those pc
culiar weaknesses and ailments incident to
women. 1t is the only medicine sold by
